O2 launches first UK 3G tariffs

Isle of Man is the place to be...

O2 has set trial prices for its 3G services on the Isle of Man. Customers will pay a monthly subscription then have free access to a set amount of data. There will be four tariffs covering corporate users, SMEs, consumers and heavy users. The average corporate customer is expected to be charged just over £80 per month. For the consumer, the charge is more likely to be around £44 per month. The island's 3G network infrastructure, which went live last November, is provided by NEC.
